I did hand all of them to the guest OS. Removing 1c.0 & 1c.6 from the qemu 
command line seems to have done the trick. Thanks!

Here's my working qemu command line:

Nope, definitely not. :)

There error does no longer occur. lspci now shows this:

Most likely because I don't hand the root ports over to the guest anymore. 
However, there seems to be another issue with the USB 3 controller since 
windows 7 can't start the device (error 10 in windows device manager). Using 
these USB ports in the host linux worked fine. Could this issue be related to 
pci-express?

Thanks,
David
